This weeks releases also come in a pack (Arguably) Punk Pack 02 which includes “Complete Control” – The Clash “Truth Hits Everybody” – The Police “Teenage Lobotomy” – The Ramones Personally I think this weeks releases were rather drab, not really a big fan of any of these tunes. Although all the [...]

I have to say that while I really enjoyed (ok, that might be an exaggeration since I only gave it a 56% in my Review) Overlord™ for all of it’s humour (it has a U because they’re English) and it’s blatant rip off of Games Workshop imagery. As Dr. Jones pointed out a while back, [...]

I admit it, I almost didn’t realize that it was Wednesday. Luckily for me, and for you, while I was reorganizing my favorites it dawned on me that today was in fact Yahtzee Review Day (YRD, not to be confused with YARGH!) The bad new is that a: I never plan on playing Sim City [...]

Continuing their domination of anything sports, EA today signed a deal with the NFL to continue producing football games on all platforms until 2013. I suppose I can’t really bitch about it, they do actually produce some quality sports games. I just love the live ESPN radio feeds and news tickers… EA EXTENDS INTERACTIVE [...]

I have to say that I’m pretty excited about this game (one of the few PC games I’m intending to play this year). Even though it’s primarily an “offline” game, the fact that you can become a “GOD” of your own world and universe reaching out and infecting other people’s computers with your creations just [...]

Typically a puzzle game does not hold my interest, the one exception being puzzle quest. Most of the puzzle games come at me without much long lasting appeal. Enter Poker Smash…I can’t imagine it took someone this long to tie a puzzle game with poker. At first look you wouldn’t think that a puzzle game [...]

These are some great titles coming out for the Xbox originals this week. Although with your local Gamestop selling these titles, you might be able to find hard copies near you for much cheaper. I can understand why they are providing these games for Digital Download, but seriously, they need to look at what the [...]

Seeing as it’s Wednesday, Yahtzee Croshaw has graced us once again with his spin on the wide world of video games, this week featuring Call of Duty 4. I have to say that I was surprised at his review, not because of his positive spin on it, but more in part to due to the [...]

Ok, I realize I never wrote a review of Mass Effect…but with all the raving reviews of the game, why bother. No seriously, I was going to write one, but well you know real life hit and then next thing you know. Hmm, not buying that one either? Me neither. Ok, the real reason was [...]

Rock Band continues to roll out some great tunes. This week they gave us a little something for everyone. From the mainstream music of the B-52′s (Roam) to the rocking classic from Kiss (Calling Dr. Love) they even threw us a bone with Faith No More’s (We Care A Lot). It has been a good [...]

While I’m not a huge driving game fan, I was pretty excited about Burnout Paradise. Any game that focuses on what I do best in racing games (crashing) has to be a winner, right? Let’s start with the good stuff that this game does. The graphics are superb. Absolutely gorgeous, with decent frame rates thus [...]

Good News for all you Call of Duty 4 players! No longer will you be bored with the “same old maps”, OH NO! There are new maps on the way! Of course they haven’t said when they will appear, but do say it should be “…this spring…” Let’s hope it’s early spring, and not late [...]
